400 when i first upped the dose, it was dulling as hell, i hated it, we went baack down to 200. But i noticed ... one time drank alcohol, i was in bad slump, alcohol induced depression, i took a lamictal, i noticed my mood came out of it. So then later on, i noticed the same thing. But it was dulling as hell, i just....got adapted to it, its no longer dulling. I take a 200mg tablet in morning, then 200mg tablet later in the day, sometimes i don't take it, but if im in a slump, it does get me out of it. It does feel like an antidepressant, at all. It just ... moves the mood back to baseline. Rexulti, this new drug they released, add to antidepressant and increases its effects. Lamictal, its basically for mania and depressive eispides, only time i found it helpful when i had depressive episodes, brought me back to baseline. Lithium is better for mania, i've heard it has antidepressant effects, but more side effects.

i don't know...because if i don't take other tablet, later in the day, its like my system is expecting it, for mood stablization. I was free minded and fast, off lamictal, i still am but it stablizes mood, but no euphoria, it will bring it baseline.
